Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 904
Josephine drilled holes into Zayne's frantic expression with her sharp gaze alone. This man could never lie even if it would cost him his life. The frequency of his blinks increased every time he lied. "Zayne!"
Already at the door with his hand on the knob, Zayne paused and turned when Josephine called out for him.
Josephine casually walked over with her arms crossed.
Out of the blue, her hand pinched Zayne's ear. She was fuming as she demanded, "Tell me the truth. What trouble is my brother in?"
Zayne chupsed in pain. "How would I know? It's your brother."
"My brother broke up with Sis Angeline, then forced her into inducing labor. Why are you condoning his ruthless ways?" Josephine shouted furiously.
Despite not understanding why Jay would induce labor on Angeline, Zayne believed that Jay Ares would only have done so with good reason, for Jay valued Angeline's life more than anything, even his own. Josephine's suspicion grew as she read Zayne's understanding for Jay from his face. "You would always jump at the chance to attack my brother
whenever he showed even the slightest sign of mistreating Sis Angeline, yet you seem to be absolutely fine now even when Jay's about to force her into a deep end. What are you hiding from me, Zayne?" Josephine grew agitated.
Not knowing how to defend himself, Zayne could only escape.
He yanked his hand out of Josephine's grip and bid her a rushed farewell. "I have to go home, Josephine. Shirley's waiting for me."
The name Shirley had Josephine defeated.
Josephine let go and could only watch Zayne leave.
By the time Josephine snapped back to reality, the bubbles of suspicion within her had begun to overflow.
What secret was Jay hiding from her?
Josephine decided to find out for herself.
With her acting schedule freed up, Josephine hailed a cab to Jay's usual residence-Garden Of A Diary.
Arriving at the gates, she was stunned. Garden Of A Diary looked completely different.
What was once a pastel grey tone had now become a happy-go-lucky pastel pink. It signified the change in ownership of the property.
After a while of yelling at the door that ended up to no avail, Josephine decided to climb in from the carved gates.
While she could not enter the villa itself, she decided to take a walk around it. Through the glimpses between the floor-to-ceiling curtains, Josephine felt her heart sink at how empty the inside was. Her instincts told her that something big must have happened to Jay.
Otherwise, he would never leave Garden Of A Diary like so.
Especially not when it was his favorite property.
He had taken part in everything he could to build Garden Of A Diary, from designing it himself to personally supervising its process. Even the materials used were chosen by Jay himself. Garden Of A Diary was somewhere he planned to live for life.
Not to mention that it did not make sense either to move all the furniture out and switch its decoration style just because he decided not to live there for the time being. Josephine's mood grew grim.
She spent the day running through major locations of Jay Ares' life.
She went to Grand Asia only to hear from the staff," The president hasn't come to work for quite a few days already."
She arrived at Horizon Colors only to realize that it had met the same fate as Garden Of A Dairy-splashed
anew.
Josephine's thoughts ran wild. 'Could the Ares family have forced Jay into bankruptcy?'
She shook her head. The thought seemed too farfetched.
It made more sense for the Ares family to force Jay into a corner before bankruptcy.
In the end, Josephine decided determinedly. To Tourmaline Estate it was.
